So I must be cursed!!! The boys and I went to Pensacola on Wed afternoon to stay for a long weekend. We got there and their air conditioning went out. Thankfully it rained and cooled off so ceiling fans were enough to get through the night and the repair man was scheduled for Thursday. I headed to the big scrapbooking crop Thursday morning and their air conditioning was out. The repairman never made it there, but one of the Scrappy Sisters is married to an air conditioner repairman so he we were in good shape by the evening. Now this afternoon at home our air conditioner is out. So it's 8:30pm and 85 degrees in our house.

It sucks even more if that northern gal is 26 weeks pregnant!!! Please pray for cool weather and for us to find someone to fix it fast.

It took lots of call transfers and time, but they could change the referral to Dr. Tran and he could get us in yesterday. Dr. Tran was unable to remove the popcorn seed in his office, but they could get Alan in for surgery first thing this morning to remove the seed. Here is where I learned that anything requiring anesthesia is called surgery. They were going to put Alan out so he...
